You don't tell us how anyone should get in touch with you, regardless it's probably unwise to post contact details publicly. If LinkedIn doesn't help, and you wish to adopt a module this, specifically the steps towards the end, should be of interest.

I was thinking work out contact details once someone says they know of him. Besides, my username here is the same as my CPAN/Pause ID and it's been the same for probably more than 20 years.

And those steps for adopting a module are what I am embarking on. Step 4.2 of https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=pause_operating_model

I think there is little chance of contact via CPAN-related information, assuming you have already tried actual email to his CPAN address - his last obvious interaction with CPAN was in January 2000. However searching the internet more generally suggests both an obvious candidate and an obvious way to try to contact them. (I'm not going to include the information here: even though it is publicly available, it feels like a violation of privacy to repeat it.)

I could have sworn when I searched LinkedIn last night I got back multiple people. Maybe it was getting late and typo'd the name, I don't know. I think I searched for DeSimone and not DeSimine. When I did a web search I was returned many obituary hits. Again, probably the same dumb typo.

I don't pay for LinkedIn premium, so a direct message was not possible, and yes his CPAN address and original email for his Pause/CPAN account bounce.

Thanks for making me unstupify my search. I found a few email addresses where he can possibly be reached.

You can find him on LinkedIn.
